Obviously, politics plays a large role in sport with the example of Rush. He is not allowed to take part in the bidding for the Rams because of his political stance. I agree with this aswell. If I was a minority athlete, I would not want to play and represent an owner that is thought to be racist. I would feel that he is just using my skills for his own benefit, and has no true passion for the game as most owners do.

  1. I agree with this. Limbaugh is a major political figure that believes strongly in his views. Some of his views are somewhat racist sometimes. These athletes are thinking that this is probably the last thing they want to put up with. But, in the end they would have to put this behind them, because in the end its all about money and the team winning.
